was waitlist movement as slow here last cycle as other VA schools
As someone else who was waitlisted here last cycle, it sure felt slow. It's also harder to get off the EVMS waitlist when you're instate vs OOS. That being said a friend of mine from virginia got off their waitlist so it's not a total lost cause haha
It was slower than I expected, but the rumor has always been that up to 1/2 the class comes from the waitlist.
I think the waitlist is ~300 people and they'll offer acceptances to ~100 in order to fill the class since some people are OOS and will probably decline the offer if they're already accepted somewhere else
More OOS applicants definitely come off of the waitlist than IS.

They may have a new screen for OOS. From last year MSAR they didn’t, but this year I heard somewhere it’s a 509 and 3.4sGPA for OOS. So kind of tough haha.
Maybe a guideline more so than hard screen. I received a secondary on Friday with 508/3.3sGPA. There's hope!
Do they send a complete email? How long do they take to send it?

It took me 2 weeks to get the complete email after submitting my secondary
I don't think it's too late, at all. If you have your secondaries prewritten or you can finish them in a quick manner, I'd say compare your stats via the MSAR and go for it if it fits. Either way, it is too early to say that you would be "late" for any school. Some people are still waiting on their Primaries to be verified.

It is early august! Besides schools like Tulane its really not late anywhere yet. But I would caution you if you are OOS to make sure the school is a good fit for you with a LM of 68. If you are IS with those stats it is a great fit!
Still waiting here too... :/
Just an note for everyone talking about the pre-secondary requirements. OOS and have a 3.2 sGPA, but I got a secondary. So. it's definitely not concrete.

Anyone think it's too late to apply here? OOS (no ties) non-trad with MCAT 512, undergrad cGPA 3.5, grad GPA 3.85
Never too late! But seriously no absolutely not people apply in October/November and get accepted.

Secondary received today! Primary submitted 7/16. OOS and sGPA is 3.2 so echoing the above about the supposed screen being a soft screen if anything.
No one on this site has any idea what the admissions committee is looking for beyond generalities. The school is mission drive: they love shadowing and community service. Beyond that, who is to say? What is your reader looking for that day, who did he or she read before yours? Etc. No one knows so give it a shot!

I don't think its necessary to explain your ties to the state because the school is OOS-friendly from what I've heard. Just make sure your activities reflect volunteer work and service-related work because they seem to be a service-driven school and may screen people out based on fit. So I agree give it a shot!
Did you check your WiFi? I’m joking obviously but yesterday the same thing happened and it was my WiFi
Same thing happened to me. Had to refresh and start over.
Minimum of 2 weeks, looking like 3-4 weeks right now. They screen everything, and send out pre-secondary rejections.
Complete email today. Submitted 8/4. IS re-applicant, previously waitlisted. Interestingly never receiving a complete email last time I applied but was interviewed. Really hoping for another email from EVMS soon with a II!
I believe so.

The second pic is for your license/other ID if you are applying for in-state tuition.
Ah, that makes a lot more sense! Thanks so much!

Submitted 8/6 also don't have a complete email
I am a little questioned by the wording for the prompt: Describe yourself and your medical career as you see it ten years from now?
Did you respond by describing yourself currently and how you see your career ten years from now or describing yourself ten years from now as well as how you see your medical career ten years from now?
Did you respond by describing yourself currently and how you see your career ten years from now or describing yourself ten years from now as well as how you see your medical career ten years from now?
I used 10 years from now for both aspects. I'm pretty sure that's what they are aiming for.
yeah its just such a weird question..... describe yourself 10 years from now. Like what? I'm going to be handsome, intelligent, successful, and perfect duh
I focused on the medical side of things, but further explained how I hope to grow and the activities I plan to continue/start.
